JAKARTA - Erik ten Hag will get a big bonus if he manages to bring Manchester United to the European Champions League in his first season.
The Dutch tactician has officially occupied the position of manager of the Red Devils since last April. He is now with the team going through pre-season before starting the tough task of the season for the 2022/2023 season.
One of the tough tasks that will be carried out by the 52-year-old coach is helping the team to get tickets to the European Champions League next season.
MU is confirmed to be absent from the main competition between European clubs after only finishing in sixth position last season. A result that makes them only able to appear in the Europa League or the second tier in Europe.
If successful in carrying out the task, the former Ajax coach will be given a big incentive. Daily Mail reports, Ten Hag will receive 3 million pounds or Rp53 billion.
To get to the Champions League 2023/2024 season, MU has two opportunities. The first is to finish in the top four of the Premier League. The second scheme is to win the Europa League.
Returning to the European Champions League is a must for the Red Devils. The reason is, being absent from the competition has a big impact on the club's finances.
According to The Sun's report, Manchester United's debt will swell to £90 million if they lose their Champions League ticket again. That amount includes 25 million pounds from a deal with Adidas which supplies their jersey.
The Red Devils currently receive 75 million pounds per season from the German brand. However, that figure will drop by a third if they fail to qualify for the Champions League for the second year in a row.
